Ground Turkey Stir Fry

Υλικά

Ingredients:

11b (450g) ground turkey

2 tosp oil (olive, canola, or sesame)

3 garlic cloves, minced

1-inch piece of ginger, minced (optional but flavorful)

1 onion, diced

1 bell pepper, sliced

1 zucchini, chopped

1 cup broccoli florets

1 carrot, sliced

2 green onions, chopped (optional garnish)

For the sauce:

3 tbsp soy sauce (or tamari for gluten-free)

1 tosp hoisin sauce or oyster sauce (optional)

1 tbsp rice vinegar or lime juice

1 tsp sesame oil

1-2 tsp sriracha or chili flakes (optional, for heat)

1 tsp honey or brown sugar

2 tsp cornstarch + 2 tbsp water (to thicken)

Instructions:

1. Cook the turkey:

Heat 1 tbsp oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add ground turkey and cook until browned and cooked through (about 5-7 minutes), breaking it up as it cooks. Remove and set aside.

2. Sauté aromatics:

In the same pan, add another tosp oil. Sauté garlic, ginger, and onion for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

3. Cook the vegetables:

Add bell pepper, broccoli, zucchini, and carrot. Stir-fry for 5-6 minutes until veggies are tender-crisp.

4. Make and add the sauce:

In a small bowl, whisk all sauce ingredients including the cornstarch slurry. Pour the sauce into the pan with the vegetables. Stir and cook for 1-2 minutes until slightly thickened.

5. Combine and finish:

Return the cooked turkey to the pan. Mix everything well so the sauce coats evenly.

Cook another minute if needed.

6. Serve:

Serve over rice, noodles, or in lettuce wraps.

Garnish with green onions or sesame seeds if desired.
